The Puddle recommends:
Opposite Sex supported The Puddle in Gisborne in 2011. We liked them so much we invited them to record at Fishrider studio. They did and their accidental and extraordinary album was the result.

Delphine (With A Purpose) / Pinker Sea
by Trick Mammoth
Flower cult guitar pop from Dunedin. Lyrics referencing literature, films, flowers & death. Sublime pop, lovely voices. So much so right about Trick Mammoth.

So happy to stumble across this on vinyl while visiting NZ - and the accompanying mag is a piece of art in itself. Fab collection of brilliant songs from a host of super-talented artists released by one of my fave labels. Did I mention how happy I am?
